| 777413 | 2009-05-28 01:17:00 | I used to work at cleaning out the lions cage and the head keeper gave me this advice. If the lion looks to attack stare it in the eyes and slowly retreat till you feel the cage bars on your back. Then slide down the bars, pick up a handful of ****, throw it in the lion's face and run for the door. I asked what if there was no **** and he said by the time I got there, there would be. :D Reminds me of the time I did a tour of MacRaes flat gold mine here in Otago; they have a huge tank full of some nasty chemical, that is under immense pressure. One of the people on the tour asked the guide what steps they'd take if the tank ruptured. The guide's response was "F%&king big ones!!" |

| 777415 | 2009-05-28 05:23:00 | Hey here's an idea. We should have just let the beast live and let it kill a THIRD man doing his job. Good logic there huh. SECOND, actually. The first incidence was a dumb girl who put her hands through a hole only for cameras, and were bitten by a lion cub. Abu (the white tiger in this story) bit Price in the knee few months ago and now killed Dalu, and now he is also dead. Sad thing. It certainly wasn't intending to eat him. Cats scratch on occasion. Tigers are rather large and cause rather large scratches, not surprising he died. That's a reason to shoot it? If the world wasn't overrun with people destroying natural habitat to house and feed themselves there wouldn't be a reason to cage them in the first place. :thumbs: - especially the last bit. I hope more people would understand that these cats are in these cages because of us humans and stop demonising them. These animals are large and have massive fangs and claws and in many cases don't realise just how powerful they are. If Mr Dalu were a tiger he probably only would suffer a bad slash and bite, not death. |

Even a piece of turd has more rights than those bastards. |

| 777419 | 2009-05-28 07:32:00 | Hope you all watched the news. On what channel? The fact remains that a Zoo keeper got somewhat dead for whatever reason. Playing with pussies can lead to a demise much like jumping out of an aircraft and forgetting to pull the rip cord on a parachute in the case you actually have a parachute which you may have forgotten to put on. Thinks about changing my Avatar but I suspect it will not jump out and bite you. |

| 777420 | 2009-05-28 07:42:00 | On what channel? I have no idea :lol: Anyway, the bit I picked up on was that the cat was beaten with a stick, pushed back with an electric cattle prodder, shot, and then shot again with a more powerful weapon all while it was attacking the keeper. So it seems it wasn't just a cat scratch, and the lion was killed during the event to try and save the guys life. |

| 777421 | 2009-05-28 07:43:00 | Maybe solve two problems - don't kill the tiger next time - leave it wandering on the harbour bridge. Cyclists are much healthier than keepers as a full diet. | R2x1 (4628) | ||

It would appear that you watch different channels than I do. It would also appear that you can't even tell me where you saw this as you seem to have no idea what you were watching. |
